It can be  a delightful tool for problem-solving and generating fresh ideas, for energising groups, for releasing tension, for shifting perspectives on issues. Nonsense to newsense is another way into sense-making that invites us to awaken our ability to listen in different ways and to engage other senses to make sense. In a world that often prioritises logic and structure, we forget that some of the most groundbreaking ideas stem from moments of pure, unfiltered play. This session is an invitation to step outside the ordinary, the rational and the logical and embrace the whimsical, the unconventional and dance with invitations that may seem nonsensical at first glance but could hold seeds of insight if we allow ourselves to play!
